While EuroMillions is most famous for producing the biggest jackpots in all of Europe, the pan-European lottery also stages some amazing raffles throughout the year! These supplementary games hand out incredible prizes to the lucky winners, and we\u2019re here to tell you all you need to know to enter and win. Our EuroMillions raffle guide lets you in on how lottery raffles work, prize-winning odds, which countries have them, and more.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n EuroMillions raffles offer players another chance at winning a massive prize without even needing to match the lottery\u2019s winning numbers! The first EuroMillions raffle, called UK Millionaire Maker, was created in 2009 with the aim of creating a buzz around EuroMillions draws and to give players a unique gaming experience.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n Now, almost every country that hosts EuroMillions also offers its own special raffle with rewarding prizes for players to benefit from. All EuroMillions raffles are staged alongside the main draws, either during one or both of the weekly draws, or on special occasions throughout the year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n When a EuroMillions lottery ticket is purchased within the week that a raffle is being staged, a unique alphanumeric code is assigned and printed on it. This is is usually done automatically with no additional cost to the player, although some raffles, like the Luxembourg Joker, give you the option of participating in the raffle for an extra\u00a0\u20ac2. The code acts as proof of participation and your chance of winning. At either one or both of the EuroMillions weekly draws, a winning raffle code is selected after the 5 main numbers and 2 Lucky Stars are drawn. If the code on your EuroMillions ticket matches, you\u2019re a winner! There is no way to participate in the raffle without entering a EuroMillions draw, as you are only assigned a raffle code when you purchase a EuroMillions ticket.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Unlike\u00a0the odds of winning the lottery jackpot<\/a>, a raffle prize depends solely on the number of lottery tickets sold. In other words, the more codes manufactured, the lower your chances are of winning. For example, high jackpots draw large amounts of players, meaning large quantities of codes will be generated, which will significantly lower your chance of winning. If you want to improve your odds of winning a EuroMillions raffle prize, playing when the jackpot is low is your best bet. The reduced number of players means less competition for both the raffle and jackpot prize!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Yes, you can! Although both games are printed on the same ticket and played alongside each other, EuroMillions lottery draws and EuroMillions raffles are viewed as two totally separate games. This means that a player who matches the lottery numbers drawn as well as the code selected in the raffle, is eligible to claim both prizes, as this is considered winning in two unconnected games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n While nine European countries host EuroMillions lottery draws, eight of them have exciting raffles that are staged throughout the year. Here is a list of every raffle offered exclusively by EuroMillions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Since 2018, the \u00d6sterreich Bonus raffle has been awarding its impressive \u20ac100,000<\/strong> prize at every EuroMillions Austria draw, making the already popular lottery even more exciting to play!<\/p>\n\n\n\n To enter, all you need to do is purchase a EuroMillions Austria lottery ticket for either of the lottery\u2019s two weekly draws. The \u00d6sterreich Bonus raffle code automatically assigned to your ticket consists of 10 numbers. So even if you don\u2019t win the lottery, you always have another chance to win the \u00d6sterreich Bonus for a\u00a0\u20ac100,000<\/strong>\u00a0bonus prize whenever you\u00a0play Austria EuroMillions<\/a>, every Tuesday and Friday at 20:30 GMT.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n A total of 600 Belgian EuroMillions players will win a bonus prize of \u20ac500 when they participate in Belgium\u2019s My Bonus raffle! Each time a EuroMillions ticket is purchased in Belgium, a 3-letter and 5-number code is automatically assigned for every line purchased. Tuesday night\u2019s draw awards 200 players the \u20ac500 raffle prize, while Friday\u2019s draw creates 400 winners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Belgian National Lottery also stages special My Bonus raffles where in addition to 400 lucky players receiving the \u20ac500 prize, an estimated 45,000 Belgian EuroMillions players are awarded a bonus prize of \u20ac10!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n My Million was introduced to French EuroMillions players by lottery operator Francais de Jeux in February 2014. With a \u20ac1 million<\/strong> prize awarded at every draw, it\u2019s easy to see why EuroMillions is such a hit amongst French lottery fans!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Entering the raffle requires the player to purchase a ticket for either the Tuesday or Friday EuroMillions France draw. A My Million code consisting of 2 letters and 7 numbers is automatically generated for every line purchased and printed onto the ticket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to the My Million raffle, lottery players can also participate in French Loto<\/a> raffle draws! This raffle is held several times a year and offers 50 lucky ticket holders a chance to win \u20ac20,000 each<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Ireland Only guarantees 10 Irish EuroMillions players a \u20ac5,000 prize at every EuroMillions draw. While this may not be the biggest prize on our list, the odds of becoming an Ireland Only prize winner is certainly higher, thanks to the large number of winning codes selected at each draw. Players who participate in a EuroMillions Ireland draw are assigned a 4-letter and 5-number code for each line purchased. The winning code is announced shortly after each draw on Tuesday\u2019s and Friday\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Irish National Lottery stages the \u20ac1 Million Ireland Only draw several times a year, where instead of the usual \u20ac5,000, one of the ten Ireland Only winners is awarded a massive \u20ac1 million<\/strong> raffle prize.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Luxembourg Joker is a unique\u00a0raffle offering an unlimited number of Luxembourgers the chance to win up to\u00a0\u20ac500,000<\/strong>\u00a0with its interesting raffle format. For an additional\u00a0\u20ac2, EuroMillions Luxembourg players will be assigned a randomly generated raffle code made up of 6 numbers between 0 and 9 for each line purchased in either one of EuroMillions weekly draws. To match the top prize, players must match all 6 numbers in the same order they were drawn. This unique rule also applies to the raffle’s 5 additional prize divisions:<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat are EuroMillions Lottery Raffles?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
